running script as different owner
We need to let out test team start/stop some of the billing engines which require being ran as the owner: appadm yet we don't want to give them the password.
Is there a command like sudo or su that will allow this, i.e. giving them the ability to only run a script that will start/stop a set of process as the owner: tbmsadm
( Is there a way to feed su the password from within a shell script )
THANKS
